Worlds divide, magic slays, and love lies in the second book of Josephine Angelini’s The Worldwalker Trilogy.
"You think I’m a monster, but my choices, as ruthless as they seem, are justified."
Lily is back in her own universe, and she's ready to start a new life with Rowan by her side. True, she almost died in the Pyre that fueled their escape from New Salem, and must hide her magic for the safety of everyone she cares about, but compared to fighting the Woven, the monstrous creatures inhabiting the alternate Salem, life is looking pretty good.
Unfortunately, Lillian, ruthless ruler of the 13 Cities, is not willing to let Lily go that easily. If she can’t persuade Lily to return to her world, she will force her to come back by doing away with the ones she loves.

“Do you know what it means to be a survivor? It means that not only do you have to live through things; you have to live with them as well. The second part is much harder and sometimes it takes the rest of your life to learn how to do it. But at least you have the rest of your life…”
I have no words, I can’t even begin to explain the emotions that are going through me right now. I can’t seem to gather the words. FIREWALKER is a third book that I read by JOSEPHINE ANGELINI and I know that it won’t be my last, because I am in love with her writing and her story, now that’s an author that has an imagination that will have you falling in love with story from first page. I have been craving FIREWALKER the moment that I finished TRIAL BY FIRE last year and now that I have, I am eager for the next book to come out and not sure if I can wait till 2016. I want to know what happens with everyone next, especially Lily. What challenges and adventures will she have to face next? Will she face Rowan again and what will happen when she does? Even though I finished a bit ago I am still thinking about it all. By middle of the book, I felt like I know all of these characters, as if they were my friends, so of course I am curious to see what happens next. How can you not help but wonder?
LILY, ROWAN : I love the two of them together, out of all the couples in the series, the two of them are my favorites. From the moment that the two of them met in TRIAL BY FIRE I could see that there were connection between two of them, and I knew that there was a reason that Lily claimed him. She loves them and the two of them belong together. The way that Rowan cared for her when she was burned and in general how he was around her, the way that he looked at her. When the two of them were together, it was like nothing else mattered. I was sure that nothing could break the two of them apart. Apparently I was wrong. I felt as heartbroken as Lily did when Rowan ripped off her willstones after he found out about Lillian. Some part of me understands why he did it, he was hurt. But another part, he should heard her out. Of course I also felt that maybe if Lily showed him the memories Lillian showed, maybe it could had a happier outcome for both of them. I am curious to see what happened with them next, I will be rooting for them to patch things up, it might take some time but I am hoping for the best. The two of them need each other.
TRISTAN How can you not love Tristan? I wasn’t his biggest fan in the first book, but he grew on me here. You can tell how much he cares for Lily, how much he loves her. I actually felt bad for him. Even though I am still rooting for Rowan to end up with Lily, I don’t think it would be all that bad if he ended up with her. I can’t even begin to imagine how it must been for him to watch the girl he loves, with somebody else. I still can’t get over what happened to him at the end, just when I start to like him, something like that happens to him? Part of me hoping that part is not real but just a dream. That’s one of the parts that had my emotions everywhere. It just too much. I can’t even begin to imagine how Lily feels, she went through so much, and honestly I don’t know how she managed to deal with so much. That’s what I love about her, she’s brave and she will do anything to protect her friends, family. I just hope she has a happy ending in the end of it all.
As I said, I love books that deal with witches or witchcraft of any kind. I got to confess that this was one of the best; it’s unlike any book that I read that dealt with witches. It’s unique and a type of story that will have your attention till end, and afterwards you will be craving for next one. I know that this was fictional book but every event, everything that Lily and her friends went through, felt real. I could picture everything and that made the story much more real to me. It brought the story and characters to live for me. A series that is worth every single page. Beautifully written. Be ready for a thrilling ride.
